This Morning star Gyles Brandreth on death of his best friend
Gyles appeared on This Morning alongside Camilla Tominey to chat about the latest news and headlines from around the world. The conversation soon turned onto the topic of best friends – and it was then that Gyles made a sad admission.
“Do you have any old friends from school?” Cat asked her guests.
Gyles replied: “I do, my best friend from school. Sadly I lost him when he was only in his forties. People will have heard of him, well an older generation will. He was an actor called Simon Cadell. He was in Hi-de-Hi!. Do you remember him, he asked Cat?”
“I do,” she said.
